Simon Lynge's music has a way of captivating one's soul, at once melodic and beautiful, yet powerful in its presence and boldness. His lyrics are poetic, and speak candidly from personal experience, sometimes of inner darkness and existential challenges. Astute observations of our world and humanity weave their way into his songs, and a real perception of the beauty of life lends to buoy the listener into a joyful space, even in the midst of deep sorrows.

Simon grew up in both Denmark and Greenland and is half indigenous Inuk(singular of Inuit); he always felt a strong affinity for his arctic homeland, with its abundant, unspoiled nature and deep connection to the Earth and its creatures. Simon's musical roots come from Greenland, where his father is an acclaimed accordion player, and his grandfather was a composer and conductor and namesake of a church choir in Qaqortoq, which still exists to this day.

Simon began singing as a boy in a church choir in Denmark, and was inspired to begin writings songs in his teenage years by the music of Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Simon & Garfunkel and Crosby Stills & Nash, among others.

Simon's music brought him to Copenhagen first, then to the UK and the US. Both his debut The Future and 2018 album The Map of Your Life, were nominated in the Best Album category at the Independent Music Awards in New York. He has had several song placements on US network television shows and in films as well as a commercial for Scandinavian banking giant Nordea, appeared on BBC Breakfast TV, and featured in Rolling Stone Germany , performed at Glastonbury Festival, toured with Emmylou Harris and when he's not wielding his instrument he can often be found on a soccer pitch, much like his idol, Bob Marley.
